Moolmanttar or the Basic Formula to know God and to become His Workers or Preachers - 3.






Exposition of Mool Mantar and the First Stanza of Japji Sahib by the men of letters dead in spirit university Moolmanttar or the Basic Formula to know God and to become His Workers or Preachers - 3. Professors and the so-called Gianis working for Mammon rather than God. I have rendered it underneath for your comparison.

There is but one God. True is His Name, creative His personality and immortal His form. He is without fear sans enmity, unborn and self-illumined. By the Guru's grace He is obtained.

Exposition by me:-
It is Har Aik ankaar and not just Ik ankaar. Har Aik ankaar for the Sikhs is different from Hari Om Shanti for the Hindus. His name is known through His Word that is Gospel Truth, Satt Naam. He is the overall Master of our lives and whatever happens, it happens according to His Will. Or we are just puppets with the playing strings in His Hand. He being the Overall Master, He is not afraid of any one and He is not revengeful like the Brahma, the demiurge god of nature or of the once-born natural people playing the tit-for-tat game. He is our Eternal Father and so are His Sons. He is self-illumined or self-existant. By the grace of our Father, we know Him through His Will. When we become His Sons or Gurmukhs, then there is no distinction between the Father and the Son. Or we too become Eternal like our Father. Thus, in Adam, we are born and die whilst twice-born in God, we become eternal like our Father.

Embrace His meditation.
Meditate or ponder over His Word or become a Seeker of His Word.

True in the prime, True in the beginning of ages,

Exposition by me:-
He is Gospel Truth, Satt, before the beginning of Ages and throughout the Ages, He remains so.

True He is even now and True He verily, shall be, O Nanak!
Exposition by me:-
He is Gospel Truth, SATT and Satguru or Christ Nanak Dev Ji says, He too could be Gospel Truth or SATT. It is Gospel Truth in God is SATT and not the secular truth SACH in Adam. So, it should be read SATT and not SACH.
